I've Been a Busy Kid...

Lots of stuff on eBay, and more things on the sculpting table...getting ready for San Diego again!

I'm looking more and more like the Insomnia Fairy!

Oddfae-mous? Almost...LOL

I just heard from some friends in the UK -- Oddfae are in this month's British publication, Faeries And Enchantment ~ FAE Summer 2008 magazine on pages 42 & 43.

Thought y'all might like to know...=-)

Here's Leonidas

All finished!!

Wendy Froud Workshop

This past weekend I was a participant in Wendy Froud's "Creating a Faery Figure" Pasadena workshop -- while I picked up a couple of tips, mostly it was just fun to be in a creative atmosphere and to see Wendy and Toby again. I got to meet some gals I had only known online up 'til now, and make a couple new friends.

O, yah! I made a doll, too! LOL

Here are some WIP pix of Leonidas...stay tuned for a completed portrait.

Finally, a BJD...

This is what I've been doing for the last week, rather than things I'm supposed to be doing...=-D




I have intended to make one of the ball-jointed dolls (BJD) for several years now, and finally sat down and made one!

All Jonna's parts are hand-sculpted -- he is hollow, and strung together with elastic, so he is completely posable. Now the poor li'l fae needs some clothes!

I'm very pleased with the result, and will be doing more in future....I think the next one will be a Faeda...

Belligerent Basil

Basil found a boomerang in the brambles behind Mrs. BO...to date, he's belligerently broken five windows, Mr. Brebble's eyeglasses, and a brindle cat.

The cat will recover, but Mr. Brebble will have that nasty Twitch for the rest of his life...

We here at Mrs. BO feel Basil would best be placed with a Family with a large yard, or a home without furnishings or pets. Unbreakable eyeglasses may be a plus.

Mashek the Goblin on eBay

Mashek the Goblin has recently moved into the Kitchen at Mrs. Blathersby's; he's living behind the stove.

Mashie decided to take up residence the day he saw Mrs. BO's cook, Mrs. Skimpole, at the Goblin Market purchasing provisions for the Orphanage. It was love at first sight, and he followed Cook home.

Poor Mashek!!

It is unrequited love, alas; Cook has screaming fits at the least glimpse of Mashie, so he must be content with admiring the Object of his Affection from afar, darting from behind the stove occasionally to steal a quick pinch, as lovesick Goblins are wont to do.
